NOTAM Meetups: Fall 2024

Hallo fellow SuperColliderers!

I’m here again with another season of SuperCollider meetups, hosted by our friends at Notam! The meetings will take place online approximately once a month on Zoom at 7pm CET (Oslo Time):

SuperCollider meetup:
Meeting ID: 974 3258 0111
Link: Launch Meeting - Zoom

At these meetups, SuperCollider users (usually 2 per meetup) present a project, class library, instrument, or artistic practice featuring our favourite audio programming environment. These presentations are informal, vary in their format, and are intended to showcase the diversity and flexibility of expression our beloved SC permits.

If you’re interested in presenting a project/workflow/tool/whatever at one of the Meetups, send me a DM and I’ll find a slot for you - absolutely everyone is welcome to share!

All community events at Notam fall under the NOTAM Code of Conduct to make them as inclusive as possible. Please read the full Code of Conduct before joining an event. If you have accessibility related requests or questions about the meetup, please send me a message here and I’ll do what I can to address them!

In the week before each meetup I’ll return here to present info about the forthcoming presenters, so be sure to follow this thread via the on the right!

The meetup dates for fall 2024 will be:

2024-09-25T17:00:00Z

Our first presenter of the fall season is @Santi:

A graduate in graphic design and passionate about sound art, Santi Vilanova has managed to combine these two disciplines through the catalyst of “creative technologies”, of which he is a self-taught developer.

(De) formed in the rave scene of the early 2000s, his sound work has evolved to integrate this influence into new territories. His recent research combines digital algorithms and sonification engines with classical staves and acoustic ensembles, focusing on the idea of a visual music.

Since 2006 he runs the audiovisual research lab Playmodes in collaboration with Eloi Maduell. At Playmodes they develop artistic installations and multimedia performances which are showcased around the world.

On this talk, Santi Vilanova will go through the creative insights of Playmodes artistic practice in the field of installation and performance. The second half of the conference will be focused on the technical details of their own software framework developed in C++ and SuperCollider, which features a visual nodal environment that allows flexible mapping of control data for multimedia devices (video, light, kinetics…) with custom multichannel synthdef parameters.
